Chapter One

Jesse Billion trudged up the stairs tiredly to his apartment with his sleeping daughter in his arms glad that he’d been able to avoid seeing the landlord today concerning his house rent which he’d not been able to pay for about two months now but he knew he had no such luck when he saw the man seated on a plastic chair right in front of his door waiting for him rather patiently and there was a huge padlock on the door.“You’re here.” The man said. “Welcome.”“Good evening Mr Godwin.” Jesse greeted.“There is nothing good about this evening at all Billion.” Godwin snapped. “Where’s my money?”.“Can I at least go in and put my daughter down first? She’s not feeling well.” He said. “So you’ll lock the door abi? I was not born yesterday Jesse.” He informed him. “Today is January 31, surely you would have been paid since twenty fifth.”That was true but he’d used part of the money to buy drugs for his little girl – expensive drugs for her heart condition because without it, she was as goo

Aviva Arroyo frowned as she listened to her ex husband brush off her concerns over their daughter’s failed relationships. She knew Vincenzo Arroyo loved his first daughter Isabella very much and didn’t want to see her hurt but he had his other children to worry about too and Izzy was the only one she had and besides a man’s love for his child couldn’t be compared to a mother’s love.Her beautiful strong daughter had just been dumped by another man – the third fiance in four years and her girl was devastated.“She’s refused to see anyone.” Vincenzo replied when Aviva asked him if he’d gone to see her. “Her assistant told me she’s been holed up in her room for days.”“What she needs is a new environment. I’ve been pleading with her to come pay me a visit but she changes the subject every time.” Aviva huffed. “She’ll like it here in Nigeria.”“I never did so how could she possibly like it there?”. Vincenzo drawled.“The last time you came here was two decades ago Vince. Everything’s chan

“Good morning Ma’am.” Employees greeted Isabella left and right as she walked to her office.“Morning.” She replied with a smile on her face as if nothing had happened just last week. As if her world hadn’t almost ended last week. That was the magic of having breakfast with daddy dearest. After her father left, she’d shrugged off the bad mood and got dressed for work then called her driver to bring the car around. The parazzi were still camping out in front of her apartment building as the driver exited the garage and onto the road joining the traffic. They were probably still waiting for her to come out of her hiding place into the real world so they could have something to put down in their freaking gossip magazines and whatnot but the joke was on them because she was out in the real world now and there was nothing to stop her.Her employees were probably wondering why she looked so happy even though she really wasn’t on the inside. She’d thought that idiot Jencarlos would be the o

Jesse rolled out of bed at five am the next morning and went through the motions of taking his bath, shaving and then making Gwen’s breakfast and lunch at the same time before he went to wake her up by six fifteen to take her bath and like a good girl that she was, she never gave him any trouble at all.“You look tired daddy.” Gwen commented as he dressed her in her school uniform.“I’m okay sweetheart.” He assured her. “Don’t worry about me.”“Daddy?”. She called after a minute.“Yes honey?” He looked up from putting on her socks.“Remember Mrs Shalom said I shouldn’t come to school if you don’t pay my fees.” She reminded him.Jesse stared at his daughter with a frown on his face as he tried to remember if he’d had a conversation with the bursar after he dropped her off in school yesterday then it hit him and he sighed.“Yes I remember.” He sounded defeated. “I’ll talk to her to give me more time or I’ll talk to Mr Williams.”“I’m sorry daddy.” She apologized.“For what?”. He looked

“Mama warned you but you didn’t listen Jess.” His subconscious taunted him. “Were you blind when you gave your heart to this woman?!”.He probably had been insane. Yes that was the only explanation that he could come up with as he kept staring at Helena. Insanity.“Mommy!”. Gwen’s excited voice yanked him back to reality.“What do you want now Helena? Are you happy seeing me like this?”. He demanded.“Get in.” She ordered. “You look like you’re going to keel over any second.”“Thanks but no thanks.” He snapped. “We’ll be on our way.” He made to walk ahead but the passenger door opened and a big bald man alighted and blocked his way.“Get in or Francis will make you.” She informed him. “You wouldn’t want your little girl hurt.”“I have to get to work.”“I could make you lose this one too.” She threatened.Jesse huffed out a frustrated sigh, glared at the bald man, rounded the car with Gwen in his arms and got in.“Good boy.” She smiled. “Let’s go Hank.”The driver pulled away from the

Freda’s eyes flashed as she stared down at her shoe and saw Gwen’s footprint on her beautiful white sneakers. It was Friday so it was sportswear day in school.“I’m sorry. I didn’t see you.” Gwen apologized. She moved to clean Freda’s shoe when the girl angrily shoved her in the chest hard and she fell to the ground.“Don’t touch me!”. Freda snarled.“Hey! That’s not nice!”. Susan chided and bent to help Gwen up.Freda glared at the two of them and flounced off.“Are you okay Gwen?”. Susan inquired as she dusted off the dirt on Gwen’s clothes.Gwen put her hand on her chest and rubbed as her heart raced in her chest. “I’m fine.” She replied breathlessly.“Your heart?”. Susan looked

His father had given him an ultimatum; choose Helena Johnson and be disowned or do without her and become CEO of his father’s bank.At the time he’d been madly in love with Helena and of course knew what his decision would be before his father even finished talking but he’d pretended to think about it and now he had an answer for them.“I’ve made up my mind Mom, dad.” Jesse spoke up making them turn to look at him.“Which is?”. James Billion asked.“Helena.” Jesse replied. “I love her very much and I can’t bear to lose her.”“Jesse!”. His mother had been appalled. “Don’t do something you’ll regret later.”“Are you sure son?”.

Jesse paced to and fro in the hallway of the hospital outside the children’s female ward holding the card in his hand. He was suddenly nervous to call the numbers on the card. What would he say? He couldn’t possibly tell her assistant that he was Aviva’s godson!.“Just call puss!”. His subconscious snapped. “Time’s a wasting.”“Right.” Jesse nodded, pulled out his phone from his pocket and quickly dialed the first number then clicked on the call button and put the phone to his ear before he could chicken out again.“Hello.” A male voice said.“Good evening.” Jesse greeted. “Am I speaking with uh… Aviva Arroyo’s assistant?”.“Yes, this is he.” Paul replied. “How may I help you?”.“My name is Jesse Billion and I need Mrs Arroyo’s help.” Jesse replied. “Jesse Billion? Of Monument bank?”.Jesse shrugged. “Yes but not anymore.”“I see.” Paul muttered. “What’s your problem?”.“My daughter is sick and she needs to have a heart transplant as soon as possible or she dies.” Jesse told him. “I

She waved and rushed to hug him. “Look at you!”.“Look at you too Aunt Izzy.” He said and turned her around for inspection. “You look fabulous!”.“Thank you.” She chuckled. “You don’t look bad yourself.”Paul watched as the bodyguards brought down Isabella’s bags and put them in the trunk of the car. There were so many bags of different sizes.“Are you relocating here?”. Paul looked amused.“No but I’m staying for at least three months.” She grinned.“Aunt Aviva is going to reach the skies.”Isabella laughed. “I can’t wait to see her. You didn’t te

Vincenzo sputtered. "You want to marry our daughter off? Why?"."I'm not marrying her off." Aviva refuted. "I'm just… looking out for her that's all.""How well do you know this guy?". Vince inquired. "For all you know,he might be a serial killer in disguise.""Don't be silly Vince." She admonished. "He's my godson.""The last time you saw him in person was almost thirty years ago. You didn't watch him grow up." Vince said. "What if he's a wife beater?".Aviva grunted in exasperation. "I wouldn't tel
